Taiwan's Ministry of Environment releases latest "National Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory"

  • 2025-07-08

Release time:2024-07-19

    In accordance with Article 13 of the Climate Change Response Act, the Ministry of Environment released the "National Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory (2024 Edition)" on June 25. Although Taiwan is not a signatory, it voluntarily aligns with international standards and discloses them to contribute to global carbon reduction. After cross-ministerial compilation, Taiwan's 2022 emissions information was announced on the same day.


Key points summary:

  • Taiwan's total greenhouse gas emissions in 2022 were 285.97 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO2e). After deducting 21.83 MtCO2e from carbon sinks, net emissions were 264.13 MtCO2e, a decrease of 4.07% from 2021.
  • While greenhouse gas emissions have generally increased in other countries around the world due to post-pandemic economic recovery, Taiwan's greenhouse gas emissions achieved a significant decline in 2022. The European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) report, "Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions," shows that global greenhouse gas emissions reached a record high of 53.8 Gt CO2e in 2022, an increase of 1.37% from 2021.
  • The International Energy Agency (IEA) released its 2024 "Carbon Dioxide Emissions in 2023" report, which indicated that global energy-related greenhouse gas emissions in 2022 increased by 1.3% compared to 2021. In contrast, Taiwan's total and energy-related greenhouse gas emissions decreased during the same period. This demonstrates Taiwan's success in controlling greenhouse gas emissions amidst the post-pandemic economic recovery, as well as the significant achievements in recent years in implementing energy transition and various sectoral emission reduction action plans.
  • While greenhouse gas emissions and economic growth are generally considered to be positively correlated, Taiwan's 2022 economic growth rate, which increased by 2.60% compared to 2021, is significantly out of sync with its greenhouse gas emissions reductions. This demonstrates Taiwan's significant progress in promoting green growth and low-carbon transformation. Compared to other countries globally, Taiwan's performance is also among the best.
